Principles for selection and application

This section, and its sub-sections, provide general technical information as well as design and application recommendations. They also provide support for product selection and application including calculations. Obviously, it is impossible to include all the information needed to cover every conceivable application. For this reason, in many places, reference is made to the SKF application engineering service. This technical service can perform complex calculations, diagnose and solve bearing performance issues, and help with the bearing selection process. SKF also recommends this service to anyone working to improve the performance of their application.
